It is known that advantage distillation (that is, information reconciliation using two-way communication) improves noise tolerances for quantum key distribution (QKD) setups. Two-way communication is hence also of interest in the device-independent case, where noise tolerance bounds for one-way error correction are currently too low to be experimentally feasible. Existing security proofs for the device-independent repetition-code protocol (the most prominent form of advantage distillation) rely on fidelity-related security conditions, but previous bounds on the fidelity were not tight. We improve on those results by developing an algorithm that returns arbitrarily tight lower bounds on the fidelity. Our results give new insight on how strong the fidelity-related security conditions are, and could also be used to compute some lower bounds on one-way protocol keyrates. Finally, we conjecture a necessary security condition for the protocol studied in this work, that naturally complements the existing sufficient conditions.

We derive a sufficient condition for advantage distillation to be secure against collective attacks in device-independent quantum key distribution (DIQKD), focusing on the repetition-code protocol. In addition, we describe a semidefinite programming
method to check whether this condition holds for any probability distribution obtained in a DIQKD protocol. Applying our method to various probability distributions, we find that advantage distillation is possible up to depolarising-noise values of $q approx 9.1%$ or limited detector efficiencies of $eta approx 89.1%$ in a 2-input 2-output scenario. This exceeds the noise thresholds of $q approx 7.1%$ and $eta approx 90.7%$ respectively for DIQKD with one-way error correction using the CHSH inequality, thereby showing that it is possible to distill secret key beyond those thresholds.
Multiparty quantum cryptography based on distributed entanglement will find its natural application in the upcoming quantum networks. The security of many multipartite device-independent (DI) protocols, such as DI conference key agreement, relies on
bounding the von Neumann entropy of the parties outcomes conditioned on the eavesdroppers information, given the violation of a multipartite Bell inequality. We consider three parties testing the Mermin-Ardehali-Belinskii-Klyshko (MABK) inequality and certify the privacy of their outcomes by bounding the conditional entropy of a single partys outcome and the joint conditional entropy of two parties outcomes. From the former bound, we show that genuine multipartite entanglement is necessary to certify the privacy of a partys outcome, while the latter significantly improve previous results. We obtain the entropy bounds thanks to two general results of independent interest. The first one drastically simplifies the quantum setup of an $N$-partite Bell scenario. The second one provides an upper bound on the violation of the MABK inequality by an arbitrary $N$-qubit state, as a function of the states parameters.
Quantum Bell nonlocality allows for the design of protocols that amplify the randomness of public and arbitrarily biased Santha-Vazirani sources, a classically impossible task. Information-theoretical security in these protocols is certified in a dev
ice-independent manner, i.e. solely from the observed nonlocal statistics and without any assumption about the inner-workings of the intervening devices. On the other hand, if one is willing to trust on a complete quantum-mechanical description of a protocols devices, the elementary scheme in which a qubit is alternatively measured in a pair of mutually unbiased bases is, straightforwardly, a protocol for randomness amplification. In this work, we study the unexplored middle ground. We prove that full randomness amplification can be achieved without requiring entanglement or a complete characterization of the intervening quantum states and measurements. Based on the energy-bounded framework introduced in [Van Himbeeck et al., Quantum 1, 33 (2017)], our prepare-and-measure protocol is able to amplify the randomness of any public Santha-Vazirani source, requiring the smallest number of inputs and outcomes possible and being secure against quantum adversaries.
We derive several bounds on fidelity between quantum states. In particular we show that fidelity is bounded from above by a simple to compute quantity we call super--fidelity. It is analogous to another quantity called sub--fidelity. For any two stat
es of a two--dimensional quantum system (N=2) all three quantities coincide. We demonstrate that sub-- and super--fidelity are concave functions. We also show that super--fidelity is super--multiplicative while sub--fidelity is sub--multiplicative and design feasible schemes to measure these quantities in an experiment. Super--fidelity can be used to define a distance between quantum states. With respect to this metric the set of quantum states forms a part of a $N^2-1$ dimensional hypersphere.
Magic-state distillation (or non-stabilizer state manipulation) is a crucial component in the leading approaches to realizing scalable, fault-tolerant, and universal quantum computation. Related to non-stabilizer state manipulation is the resource th
eory of non-stabilizer states, for which one of the goals is to characterize and quantify non-stabilizerness of a quantum state. In this paper, we introduce the family of thauma measures to quantify the amount of non-stabilizerness in a quantum state, and we exploit this family of measures to address several open questions in the resource theory of non-stabilizer states. As a first application, we establish the hypothesis testing thauma as an efficiently computable benchmark for the one-shot distillable non-stabilizerness, which in turn leads to a variety of bounds on the rate at which non-stabilizerness can be distilled, as well as on the overhead of magic-state distillation. We then prove that the max-thauma can be used as an efficiently computable tool in benchmarking the efficiency of magic-state distillation and that it can outperform pervious approaches based on mana. Finally, we use the min-thauma to bound a quantity known in the literature as the regularized relative entropy of magic. As a consequence of this bound, we find that two classes of states with maximal mana, a previously established non-stabilizerness measure, cannot be interconverted in the asymptotic regime at a rate equal to one. This result resolves a basic question in the resource theory of non-stabilizer states and reveals a difference between the resource theory of non-stabilizer states and other resource theories such as entanglement and coherence.
